A boy goes on the run in this fast-paced fantasy debut.
Can a zero become a hero?
Testing Day is supposed to be a day of celebration for Al Pilgrommor. Born into a wealthy family, he expects to follow in his successful father's footsteps. Of course, that all depends on the rank number Al receives at the testing. The higher the rank he has tattooed onto his neck, the better his life will be.
To his surprise and horror, Al is revealed to be rank zero, the lowest of the low. He's now not only an outcast - he's also a danger to his entire family. So Al goes on the run, fleeing the brutal Cullers, men who hunt down zeroes . . . and put them to death.
Cast out of his home, cut off from his friends, and armed with only a sword and his wits, Al is reduced to just surviving. As he meets other outcasts, however, he begins to suspect that he is a pawn in a larger game - and that he might have the power to tip the scales in a high-stakes struggle between man and dragon.

I am still reading this book so I will write more. -Greninja7166
This story is in another world, it is a world with dragons and other creatures. People are judged based on their potentia and dragons basically rule everything. It follows the story of a boy with zero potentia and his adventures which led to him killing the dragons. I can relate to some of the things that Al felt, he felt desperation, despair, hope, and also anger. He has an up and down adventure. I liked the book, my favorite part in the book was when Al outsmarted the dragon that was the keeper to everything, that was really satisfying. I recommend this book to people who like adventure and dragons.
